function hook_node_insert

7.x node.api.php

hook_node_insert($node)

Respond to creation of a new node.

This hook is invoked from node_save() after the database query that will
insert the node into the node table is scheduled for execution, after the
type-specific hook_insert() is invoked, and after field_attach_insert() is
called.

Note that when this hook is invoked, the changes have not yet been written to
the database, because a database transaction is still in progress. The
transaction is not finalized until the save operation is entirely completed
and node_save() goes out of scope. You should not rely on data in the
database at this time as it is not updated yet. You should also note that any
write/update database queries executed from this hook are also not committed
immediately. Check node_save() and db_transaction() for more info.
